2. Figure 1
Inverse correlations between the size of the major low-density lipoprotein (LDL) subfractions (nm) and the triglyceride (TG) content per particle (A; r = 0.42, P < 0.02) and the relationship between LDL size and unesterified cholesterol (FC) per apoB ratios (B; r = 0.40, P < 0.04) in normo- and hypertriglyceridemic patients. (C) Inverse correlation between cholesteryl ester content per particle and the triglyceride content in LDL within normo- (NTG; ▴) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG; □) study participants (r = -0.37, P < 0.05).

3. Figure 2
Changes in the triglyceride content per apoB during hemodialysis (expressed as ΔLDL-TG/apoB) are positively related to the changes in the LDL diameter (expressed as ΔLDL-diameter). Symbols are: (□) hypertriglyceridemic and (▴) normoglyceridemic subjects. r = 0.38, P < 0.05.

4. Figure 3
CETP activities before, during (1.5hr after the bolus heparinization at the beginning of hemodialysis) and after hemodialysis therapy in normo- (NTG; ▴) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG; □) patients. Each time point represents the median values with minimum and maximum. #P < 0.001, NTG vs. HTG group; *P < 0.01 and **P < vs. baseline levels within each study group.

5. Figure 4
Cellular [3H]-oleate incorporation into cholesteryl ester in fibroblasts (A) and murine macrophages P388 (B) induced by LDL prepared from NTG and HTG patients before [HTG-LDL (▪) and NTG-LDL (▾) and during hemodialysis [HTG-LDL (hemodialysis) (□) and NTG-LDL (hemodialysis) (▵)]. #P < 0.05, between NTG-LDL and the corresponding HTG-LDL concentration; *P < 0.05, between hemodialysis-modified LDL and baseline LDL within each group and LDL concentration. Values are mean ± sd.
